Fractures: Health Services

Asked by Sir Jeremy HuntConservativeDepartment of Health and Social CareTabled Answered 29 April 2026UIN 127429

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress his Department has made on (a) developing and (b) publishing a national implementation plan for Fracture Liaison Services.

Answered by Mrs Sharon Hodgson

Our 10-Year Health Plan committed to rolling out Fracture Liaison Services across every part of the country by 2030. Integrated care boards (ICBs) remain well-placed to make decisions according to local need. The Renewed Women’s Health Strategy sets an expectation that ICBs prioritise community-based models when commissioning new fracture prevention services.
